Do Black Lives Matter in the Labor Movement?

Working Class Heroes Radio

Working Class Heroes Radio is back after a week off! Well, it's more like we moved from a half-hour show on Thursdays to a full hour radio program live on WBAI 99.5fm on Saturday nights at 6 pm. On this week's show, Julian and Carlos speak with Robert Cuffy, founder of the Socialist Workers Alliance of Guyana, a DC37 Union member and a member of the Afrosocialist and Socialist of Color Caucus of the DSA. Robert speaks with us about the role organized labor can play in the Black Lives Matter uprising across the U.S., the demand to expel police unions out of the labor movement, and how the Black freedom struggle can generate broader social movements in the United States. We also get a brief live report of the Occupy City Hall encampment from our correspondent, Lea Ramirez. Make sure to download and subscribe to our weekly show.
